Electrostatic discharge (ESD), the sudden flow of static electricity between two objects, can damage electronic devices, spark explosions or fires in flammable environments, and cause data failures. Cognex DataMan ESD-safe handheld and fixed-mount barcode reader line is the broadest family of industrial barcode readers that combines ESD-safe plastics for all enclosure parts with the antistatic coating for all optical parts to prevent damage to components that are electrostatic discharge sensitive (ESDS). Cognex ESD-safe barcode readers meet ESD safety requirements according to IEC 61340-5-1:2016.

DataMan ESD-Safe Handheld Readers

DataMan 8050HD/8050HDX corded handheld barcode readers are designed with advanced algorithms to decode challenging 2D direct part mark (DPM) codes as well as 1D barcodes. The ESD protective and rugged housing ensure ESD safety in even the harshest industrial environments.

DataMan ESD-Safe Fixed-Mount Readers

DataMan fixed-mount barcode readers feature best-in-class performance with patented 1D and 2D code reading algorithms to read even the most challenging and degraded codes, in addition to flexible optics and lighting. They are easy to setup and quick to deploy on your production line.
